Campaigners demand HSBC reverse decision to block payments to Palestinian aid group Interpal

CAMPAIGNERS have demanded HSBC reverse its decision to stop processing standing orders to Palestinian aid group Interpal.

A report by Middle East Eye revealed today that the bank will stop payments to Interpal — one of Britain’s largest groups delivering aid to Palestinians in the West Bank, Gaza and in refugee camps in Lebanon and Jordan — from May 17.

HSBC, one of the biggest banks in the world, did not give any specific reason for the decision.
